Subject: [PATCH v2 18/24] dyndbg: Upgrade class param storage to u64 for 64-bit classmaps
Date: Sat, 23 May 2026 01:14:51 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260523-dd-maint-2-v2-18-b937312aa083@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260523-dd-maint-2-v2-0-b937312aa083@gmail.com>
Currently, `struct ddebug_class_param` uses `unsigned long` pointers
to store the state of `bits` and `lvl`. On 32-bit architectures, this
limits the bit-vector to 32 bits, which truncates 64-bit classmaps
(such as the one needed by `__drm_debug`).
To guarantee support for 64-bit debug categories across all
architectures, upgrade the internal storage types in `struct
_ddebug_class_param` to `u64`. This inherently makes both union
members the same size while safely avoiding truncation.
This includes:
- Changing union members `bits` and `lvl` to `u64 *`.
- Using `kstrtou64()` for sysfs input parsing.
- Replacing array-based `test_bit()` operations with safe `u64` scalar
bitwise logic (`!!(val & (1ULL << bi))`).
- adjusting lib/test_dynamic_debug.c too
Not yet done:
- Updating `drm_print`'s `__drm_debug` to `u64` and configuring the
associated module parameter as `ullong`.
- Fixing an unused variable warning in `__drm_printfn_dbg`.

v2:
patch was "make bits & lvl same size"
but that size was unsigned long, only 32 bits on i386 etc
use u64 for all bits, and %llu %llx
